At PalmPay, I manage enterprise business development and strategic partnerships across fintech, digital payments, e-commerce, gaming, utilities and other sectors. I work with partners from identification and commercial negotiation through integration, activation and account growth, including high-volume payment initiatives involving transaction activity exceeding 1 billion daily.

Through business acquisition and ecosystem partnerships, I helped grow PalmPay's Nigerian user ecosystem from approximately 20 million when I joined to more than 45 million. I coordinate with Product, Engineering, Legal, Compliance, Risk, Finance and Operations to turn partner needs into active payment solutions.

Earlier, at Optiweb Communications, I secured partnerships with Safaricom, Orange and Glo and improved customer satisfaction from 71% to 95%. At Rapid Cash, I delivered more than 100% sales growth within one year through customer acquisition, retention and relationship management.
